He felt betrayed and cheated by his own sworn brother but he accepted his fate and closed his eyes to accept death. The next moment he heard something earth-shattering. Nobody knows what Maverick told Severus but whatever it was, it questioned Severus's existence. “No, this can’t be true—” “Who am I?” “What am I?” “Who are my parents?” “What was the reason behind my existence?” Severus died while these questions remained unanswered. ——Present life—— Severus found himself resurrected, to his surprise, in his original body and within the same timeline. "It's only been a few days since I was assassinated, and I've been resurrected," he muttered to himself. As he contemplated his situation, he discovered newfound powers within him. He raised an eyebrow in amazement and questioned, "What are these powers?" Looking around, he noticed a bird perched nearby and couldn't help but wonder, "A bird? Why is there a bird here?" He observed the black raven and inquired, “This black Raven is known as Noworry, huh?” With this unexpected second chance at life, Severus was determined to unravel the unsolved mysteries from his previous existence. He made a solemn vow to exact his revenge. *********************** A new character is introduced in his new life; Noworry, a funny bird who becomes his pet, sent by Hades to help him.
